Hey Nero owners,

has anyone tried filling the diffs with diff oil but leave the locker mechanism in? I have found one functioning diff brain servo in my parts bin and wonder if I should try that for the center (all lockers were removed previously).
I am not sure if I saw an O-ring in the diffs and want to avoid a possibly foreseeable mess...

Any input would be appreciated!

There are o rings and grease is recommended.😉
 
Quick update on this, I have filled the diffs and put the servos back in, I haven´t run the truck yet but the center (500k) and front (50k) seem to hold the fluid just fine so far ,the rear (30k) is leaking. Seems it´s a matter of viscosity, OR I didn´t manage to put the large O-ring back properly into it´s groove. Diff lock also still work. although there is an audible "sticky" sound in the front when locking/unlocking.

Also, destroyed another servo whilst trying to set end-points.
